Abstract

HL7 released V3 CDA(Clinical Document Architecture) and V2.x message standards for medical information exchange. Currently, these standards are successfully adopted by a number of nations across the globe. However, substantial amount of time is required to develop and implement these standards. Moreover, developers need a lot of time to understand these standards. To solve these issues from 2011, the HL7 standard framework started to discuss Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources(FHIR) as next generation standard of healthcare information exchange. People's interests toward personal health record and smartphone penetration rate are growing and increasing rapidly. Therefore, our research team believes it is necessary to develop a PHR profiling system which could be accessed by using a smartphone and we developed the system. Through a FHIR Profile editor tool developed in Furore, we found that improvements could be made in generating and changing the profile. In order to build the PHR Profiling system, an Open-API on FHIR is used for exchanging information between electronic medical record system and PHR Profiling system. In the PHR Profiling system, the transactions of information between two systems are provided by RESTful service. In this study, we verify the efficiency of development of the PHR Profiling system through FHIR.

건강정보의 교환, 통합, 공유, 검색의 표준을 개발하는 Health Level Seven(HL7)에서 발표된 표준들은 글로벌한 의료정보 서비스에 성공적으로 사용되고 있다. 그러나 V2.x Message와 V3 Clinical Document Architecture(CDA)는 습득하고 개발하는 데 많은 시간이 소요되는 문제점이 있다. 개선된 Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources(FHIR)를 사용함으로써 이러한 문제점을 해결할 수 있는 방법인지 모색한다. 개인건강기록이 사회적인 관심을 끌고 있고, 스마트폰 보급률이 급격히 증가하는 점을 반영하여 스마트폰으로 접속 가능한 개인건강기록 프로파일링 시스템을 개발한다. Furore에서 개발한 FHIR Profile editor tools을 통해 profile의 생성, 변경의 개선점을 찾아본다. 이와 같은 시스템을 구축하기 위해서 Electronic Medical Record(EMR) 시스템과 Personal Healthcare Record(PHR) 시스템 간의 정보교류를 FHIR Open API로 구성한다. PHR 프로파일링 시스템에서는 이들 트랜잭션을 RESTful 서비스로 제공한다. 본 연구에서는 FHIR를 통해 PHR 프로파일링 시스템 개발의 효율성을 검증한다.
